Ken Burns' THE VIETNAM WAR is one of the most detailed, insightful and brilliant documentaries I have ever seen. As heartbreaking as it is riveting, it left me shattered and in tears. A truly masterful and humanistic work. 10 out of 10. It absolutely consumed me while I was watching it. fact is, everything else you watched this week must have seemed rather trite by comparison.
PS. Did you and your son have a game of battleshits after watching NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE Aussie? Or, did you just watch it because you are a Ed Lauter completist?
PPS. Have you seen the Oscar-winning, 8-hour long O.J. MADE IN AMERICA? It is a must-see, and right up there with THE VIETNAM WAR when it comes to excellence and insight.
I think you've picked up on my viewings - all 7 movies were my son's choices, The War I watched right through on my lonesome. lol. You are just trying to deflect from the fact you were playing battleshits the whole weekend OldAussie.LOL. No, I get it, you are saying that in the case of your son the apple fell very, very far from the tree when it came to good taste in movies.
Haven't seen the O.J. documentary but I'd like to. I hope you get to watch it one day. It is a truly extraordinary viewing experience.
